    Even in Garuda EX, melee can outdamage everyone, Ifrit EX is just about the same. I don't see any content atm where a melee will get outdps'd by range. Though Summoner is arguably better at some encounters due to how their pet works.
    Actually, why are people so insistent that melees will always out DPS ranged in Primal EX?

    IDK. To me it can be situational. I've been invited to this LS of skilled players and we have been clearing EMs without a static for weeks, one shotting them. We sold runs together, we did solo heals and what not. These players are definitely skilled and know their stuff. But as a BRD there are times that I could outdo a melee, albiet not a large margin.

    Actually, if you read the arguement, it's about melee getting OUTDPS'd by a range, last time I check, the term OUTDPS'd is used if the damage gap is by a large margin. I never said that when melee gets compared to a range, it's an instant melee win, range can win ofcourse, been there done that (my main is a BRD), but as you've said it's not by a large margin, hence the OUTDPS'd term should be out of context.

    Well if the "out dps" meant by a large margin.. I agree it's not really possible most of the times >.>
